Tottenham Hotspur captain soccer player Son Heung-min (32) revealed the diet he eats every morning.
On the 18th (local time), a video titled ‘A day with Sonny!’ was posted on Tottenham’s official Instagram.
The released video contains Son Heung-min’s daily routine from going to work at the club to leaving work. Son Heung-min revealed his daily breakfast diet and training routine.
First, Son Heung-min visited the club at 8:28 a.m. and had breakfast. Son Heung-min said, “For breakfast, I usually eat an omelet with avocado and ham on sourdough bread,” and “I always eat the same menu every day.” A fellow player who was watching Son Heung-min’s meals helped out by saying, “It’s the same diet every day.”
After finishing his meal, Son Heung-min warmed up by stretching at the indoor training center. Son Heung-min, who showed a cheerful side by joking around with his teammates, took on a serious attitude when training began in earnest.
After training, I focused on recovery in the swimming pool provided at the training center. Son Heung-min went into the water and stretched and relaxed his muscles, then went into the ice bath and soaked for about 10 minutes. Son Heung-min said, “It’s very cold, but it’s good for recovery. “The older I get, the more I do it every day,” he said.
After concentrating on recovery, Son Heung-min began preparing to leave work. Son Heung-min, who visited a restaurant before leaving work, ate chicken, tomatoes, and avocado for lunch and finished the meal with protein yogurt for dessert.
Sourdough, which Son Heung-min eats every day, is one of the ways to ferment bread. It is the oldest form of grain fermentation and has a low phytic acid content, which inhibits mineral absorption. In addition, the glycemic index is low, so there is no burden of blood sugar spikes, and the gluten is broken down during the fermentation process, so it is easy to digest.
Additionally, consuming avocados, which are rich in unsaturated fatty acids, stimulates metabolism and increases the speed of visceral fat burning. An omelet is an egg dish made by boiling beaten eggs and is good for muscle strength development. This is because egg whites have almost no fat and contain 3.5g of protein.
Netizens who watched the video responded, “It’s amazing that they eat the same menu every day,” and “Vlogs like this are very welcome.”
Meanwhile, professional soccer players like Son Heung-min reportedly follow a very strict diet to prevent injuries and weight gain.
